This striped delight recipe is four layers of delicious all in one dish. With a sweet graham cracker crust, a creamy cream cheese layer, and chocolate filling, it’s a yummy layered dessert that will satisfy every sweet tooth.
It might be for nostalgic reasons because those are both classic recipes my mom has been making my entire life, and I associate them with all the good things in my childhood.
But it’s also because both recipes are absolutely delicious, and I’d die a happy woman if those were the last two things I ever get to taste.
Chocolate Lasagna Recipe
Striped delight is the best layer dessert ever. It’s a combination of four layers – a graham cracker crust, a sweet cream cheese layer, chocolate pudding, and a whipped cream layer top it all off.
It’s four layers of amazing creamy flavor that work together in a way I’ve never found in other desserts. And it’s a vintage recipe from like the 80s when my mom started making this.
You’re likely to have most of these ingredients already on hand if you do any baking at all. If not, you can find any of them readily available at your local grocery store!
Fresh Peach Delight
One of my favorite things about striped delight is that it’s super easy to make. And you can make it the night before, hours before, or right before and it’s still delicious.
Watch the video in this post to see how it’s made! And make sure to read the recipe card at the bottom of this post for even more details and specifics.
Combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 1/4 cup of the sugar in a large bowl. Mix together until it forms a nice thick crumbly layer.
Layered Chocolate Delight Recipe
Press the graham cracker crumb mixture onto the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish to create a crust. Make sure it’s spread out in an even layer and pressed down slightly so it forms a crust.
Mix 3 1/4 cups of cold milk with the instant chocolate pudding packets using a whisk. Mix until well combined then put in the fridge to chill.
If you used instant pudding like the directions said, you’ll have a nice thick chocolate pudding ready in about five minutes. Work on the rest of the striped delight while the pudding is setting.
Graham Cracker Desserts
Combine the cream cheese, other 1/4 cup sugar, and 2 tablespoons milk with a mixer until the cream cheese mixture is smooth. If you use cream cheese that is too cold, you may end up with chunks of cream cheese instead of a smooth layer. It’ll still taste okay, it’ll just have a different texture than normal.
Once the mixture is smooth, fold in half of the Cool Whip (so about 4 oz) into the mixture with a spatula until smooth.
Put the cream cheese layer on top of the graham cracker crust in the baking dish. Spread out until you have one even layer.
Striped Delight Recipe (chocolate Layered Dessert)
Once your chocolate pudding is set, pour the chocolate pudding layer over the cream cheese layer, using a spatula to move it around to get an even layer.
Don’t overdo the chocolate pudding layer, just make a thick layer all over then move on. You may have extra chocolate pudding and that’s okay, just enjoy it as a snack later!
If you’re planning to serve the striped delight now, continue to step five below. If you’re not, let the striped delight chill in the fridge until you’re ready to serve.
Chocolate Delight (chocolate Lasagna)
It’s best served after refrigerated for a few hours, but I’ve been known to eat it immediately and the taste is still great – it’s just not quite as chilled.
Then use the chocolate bar and shave large pieces of chocolate on top to finish it off. Or don’t, if you’d rather just serve plain!
Striped delight is best stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container or in the same baking dish with an airtight lid like this one. Enjoy within a week then throw away anything left (not likely).

Easy Chocolate Delight Dessert Recipe
This four-layer pudding dessert has many names. Some aunts remembered first making it when it was called the Robert Redford. They tried to think of what movie star to rename it after now, but we didn’t come up with an answer.
My husband has always known this as the Chocolate Delight, but others call it the Four Layer Pudding Dessert, 4 Layer Delight, Chocolate Lush or Chocolate Yum Yum. Chocolate is definitely the star of the show among all of the layers.
In my husband’s family at a potluck you’ll always find Oreo Dirt Cake or Chocolate Delight on the dessert table. On a good day both of these classics will be there!

The good news is that regardless of what you call it this dessert tastes GREAT! An aunt said that the extra cream cheese layer makes this easy dessert for a crowd extra special. Her grandson told me that the mini chocolate chips sprinkled on top make it extra special to him. Another grandchild shared that they would rather have this pudding, cool whip, and cream cheese dessert for their birthday than a cake.
My husband would disagree because he has always asked for his mom’s Best Rich and Moist Chocolate Cake for his birthday, that is until we made thisChocolate Covered Strawberry Cake and now that’s all he thinks about. So genetics and family can differ, but at the end of the day, any of the desserts that we share here on the website are delicious and make people happy!

My mom has been making this chocolate layered dessert, commonly called chocolate delight, for years. It’s a popular choice for birthdays and other special occasions. A good dessert can take an ordinary gathering and make it something extraordinary. And this chocolate pudding layered cake is
Chocolate delight has 5 layers – a pecan cookie crust, fluffy cheesecake filling, chocolate and vanilla pudding, whipped topping and chocolate shavings. All of the steps are simple, but you will want to allow for chilling time, so plan to make this dessert in advance. You can actually make chocolate delight up to 3 days before you plan to serve it.
The first step is to make the pecan cookie crust. It’s a combination of flour, melted butter and chopped pecans, which get pressed into the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch dish or pan. You will then bake the crust at 325°F for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely before moving on to the next step.

After the crust comes the cheesecake, which is a light and fluffy combination of cream cheese, powdered sugar and Cool Whip topping. I like to chill each layer before I add the next to give everything a chance to firm up. A quick trip into the freezer for 20 minutes is enough time to help everything set.
The next layer is instant
